Other than a prospect that has been there before like Sacha Boisvert and put up points in college hockey already, it's crazy to see these huge ploys to pay a player in college hockey.
Are some of these big recruits worth a $100K or more to come to a school? The answer is no, but that is currently the landscape of college sports.
Academic wise, you’d assume it would be more challenging for a CHLer to meet requirements for a Big Ten school than UND.
Love to see what kind of loop holes these Big Ten schools are pulling to get some of these CHLers enrolled and up to snuff.
Not every hockey player, let alone CHLer has the student qualifications.
Carter Bear projected to be a 1st round pick. I think UND should still go after him minus his injury and his availability not being until 2nd semester.
Do it!
Someone should do a compare and contrast to our latest addition and roster vs. Michigan.
Backend D-core and goaltending, UND is a leg up.
Imo, I don’t think the loss of Jayden Perron to Michigan hurts UND’s roster. Addition by subtraction. He was a turnover machine and liability. Great offense skill, though.
Need to see some more workload at the next level before offering.
Kid is an older sophomore, looks like he’s 22 and probably done growing.
I’d want to see how he does against better talent or a year in the USHL.
If Perron wants NIL money and gets persuaded, let him walk. However, I'd say you could probably pencil him in for 11-15 goals next year. That's hard to replace. I hope UND can retain all their players, they could have a nice team next year with a few more additions of some Canadian Juniors or a portal player or two.
